    I agree. Side windows are a must-have feature on a truck cap.

    Edit: meant to say side windows that open awning style so you can reach inside the truck box. May not be as necessary for everyone but I grab tools multiple times a day out of the truck box and with the side windows I can reach almost everything without having to crawl into the truck box

    @HosStyle if you're looking for a used cap go online and check trucks at dealerships. Don't bother calling as they always say they won't sell separate but if you go talk to them they will (I've bought 2 caps that way). Truth is caps don't add value to trucks on the lot so selling separate actually helps them.

    There's also a couple guys on kijiji that buy Adesa vehicles then resell privately selling trucks and caps separate. Be patient and keep your eyes open.
